Tired of the small screen on your mobile and looking for an easy solution to watch online videos on TV? Taking forever to find what you want to watch in front of TV after a long day? Losing the online video you were watching and don’t know where to resume?

We hear you. Our dream is to make watching online videos a simple enjoyment. After working in multimedia for years, we still could not find a device that is simple enough to our family and friends. So we decide to create our very own online video player, OVO, to build an easy connection to online videos on TV.

Unique User Experience

Just collect online videos with your smartphone via the OVO·Q, our mobile APP that collects, organizes, and shares videos from online media, while waiting for a bus, taking the MRT, or eating in a restaurant, and you are only one click away from enjoying selected videos comfortably on your sofa.

It is also easy to share videos with the elderly and children at home, who only need to click on the OVO to play your videos. As parents, you can protect your kids from inappropriate content on the Internet by providing selected videos easily accessed by them.

Absolute Convenience

Our OVO provides many handy features so users would not be limited by space, time, or screen:

Switch Play: switch video play between your handheld device and the OVO.

OVO Features

Mirror Screen: mirror your screen to TV.

My Media: share media contents from your mobile device to TV.

Media Apps: play media contents to TV from 3rd party Media Apps, including DLNA-compliant and proprietary services. More content services will be provided, including Apps offering substantial Chinese videos.

Simplicity isn’t simple. But through the OVO network, watching online video can be a simple enjoyment.

Beautiful Design from the Inside Out

The egg-shaped OVO not only provides a stylish look, but also fulfills engineering purposes. Its vertical design allows room for a tilt WiFi module so that higher signal quality can be achieved. With a cantilever power button built at the bottom, the OVO also enables better usability – you can activate the device simply by pressing gently on its top, with no need to pinpoint your fingertip at a small switch.

Open Collaboration

We will provide OVO’s API for developers to build video linkage to the OVO·Q. While App or Web developers can add a function icon to their user interface, system integrators can utilize our product and services to meet their display needs in chain store, classroom, or digital signage applications. You are very much welcomed to be one of our OVO beta developers, and we are looking forward to discussing more exciting ideas with you!

Hardware

We are almost READY and will enter Mass Production with Your Support!

Designed in Taiwan, a place known for expertise in volume production of high-quality IT products worldwide, the OVO comes from joint efforts of top experts in design, mechanical engineering, and production since its early development.

We have completed two prototyping phases and solved most of the mechanical and electrical issues. Almost all of the components come from suppliers that we have closely worked with for years. We are conducting a detailed review with our tooling vendor and defining the PCB testing interface with our manufacturer. Our engineering samples are expected to come out in September, before we enter mass production in October. All we need is your support to make it happen!

Can you tell the differences in shape between the two eggs above? It illustrates our 'OVO Attitude'!
